You may have read in my last letter about my trip
to headquarters in Orlando, Florida back in August. I went to help the national
direction team create a strategic plan for our national priorities and it was
an honor to have been invited into that conversation.
I’ve been invited into several projects over the
past few months with Cru. Although my new role title is female director for
Jersey Metro Cru, I have been invited into several other conversations by some
of its national directors that will help change the outlook of our organization
as a whole.
Diverse group @ Jersey Cru |
Around the nation, Cru campus movements are led and
filled with majority White staff and students. Jersey Metro Cru is a rare community with various ethnic backgrounds and cultures
represented. Some of this could be attributed to the make-up of the campus or
the students’ rare ability to integrate with one another. Sadly, another reason
could be the fear and uneasiness in presenting the Gospel to students of a
different culture or ethnicity.
My long-term goal is to help Cru campus movements
across the nation reflect its scope ethnically. God recently provided an
opportunity for me to put these thoughts into a video presentation (visit my
blog to view video) that was presented to our national campus direction team at
headquarters by the Mid- Atlantic national director and a few others.
God is already moving in the hearts of so many
staff, faculty and students to go in this direction. I am excited to see how
God will use students from New Jersey to help transform Sunday morning
experiences and encourage love and unity throughout our country during this
very difficult time. Thanks for being part of this.
(Acts 2:43-44)
